Give us today our daily bread
and forgive us our sins
as we forgive those who sin against us…
Amen”
I bet animals are more civilized than us.
At least they know how to treat others as brothers.
And we, forgetting the fact,
one family, one home, one world,
trying our best to evacuate from the space of,
love, loyalty, forgiveness, and respect.
Fastening the seatbelts over the chest, with a colossal
amount of pressure, racing ourselves, as fast as possible to
the final destination,
failing to realize the fact that, we all have the same final
destination, ..........Death.
In fact, we’ve learned how ruthless we can become,
and we’ve reached a point where,
humanity is beyond repair.
It’s lost,
between the layers of dusk and dawn,
benevolence has been lost,
humanity has been lost.
Our own egotistical world,
where there is no room for mankind,
and there is only room for a cruel mind.
Our actions may speak more than what we mean,
breaking others into small pieces,
global
public
school
scattering them far apart
making sure that they can never grow back again,
permitting them to bleed from within.
Just take a few seconds …..
sit back and analyze,
did you hurt them?
Oh, I am extremely sorry, the fault is on my side
because being empathetic is not our game,
and moreover, we have no time for it
because we are busy running after time,
running for money and reaching heights, that never will
satisfy us.
Are you a human?
Do you belong to the most dangerous species on Earth?
Do you belong to a category of people who don’t fear to kill
lives even before they are born?
Easy to preach, hard to act.
Let’s not kill someone if they are hungry,
let’s not fight for justice that isn’t real,
let’s not be cynical for at least once.
let’s not be separated by religion,
let’s be united by humanity.
The last thing that I can do for ourselves is to pray once
more :
“Give us today our daily bread
and forgive us our sins
as we forgive those who sin against us…
Amen”
